Chapter 728: Love Has Become a Wound
"Xi Hao, why don't you go in?" As soon as he entered the courtyard gate, he saw Xi Hao pacing back and forth in front of the steps with his head drooped with a depressed face, and glanced at the hidden door from time to time, looking very worried, so he walked quickly to his side and lowered his head and asked, "What are you doing?"
"Shhhh Xi Hao raised his index finger to restrain the lingering words, and then gently pulled him aside and quietly stepped aside: "I don't know what Daddy said, I see that Daddy is crying, lingering, do you say Daddy will be, will it be ......" Xi Hao's words paused, and he didn't say any more, but the worry between his eyebrows couldn't be hidden.
Lingering knows what kind of meaning Xi Hao's words contain, and the same is true for him, Bai Yan has not said that Hou Ye has been here for a few days, and now as soon as he leaves, Hou Ye will come over, and this situation is not good for anyone to see.
"You don't know what they're saying, maybe it's just gossip. Seeing that Xi Hao was still worried, he reached out and pinched Xi Hao's cheek, pulled the corners of his lips left and right, and said with a smile: "Laughed." β
"I'm so panicked, you're still in the mood. Xi Hao angrily slapped his hands, then glared at him, and was listening to the sound of the door behind him, the two hurriedly turned around, only to see Meng Changlong stepping out of the door alone.
"Lingering, bullying Hao'er again. Meng Changlong pretended to be majestic and shouted, and when he saw this, he hurriedly let go of his hand, and stepped forward to ask for peace: "Lang Mian has seen his father, how dare he bully him now, he has flawless support, but he doesn't take me in his eyes." β
"I don't have any. Xi Hao felt wronged and raised his hand to pinch the lingering, but lingering had already laughed and flashed to the side, and stepped up the stone steps in a few steps to Meng Changlong's side: "The child has just made food, and Daddy will go to the front hall to eat." β
"I haven't eaten what you made for a few days, and I'm really hungry. After Meng Changlong finished speaking, he tilted his head slightly to the side and said to the door: "Flawless, let's go eat together." β
"Good. There was a light response from inside the door, Xi Hao and Lingering looked at each other with wide eyes, and they didn't say anything for a long time, and when the white figure jumped into view, the two of them looked at each other at the same time.
Flawless walked out slowly, and gradually stepped into everyone's sight, his face was no longer tear-stained, but with a faint smile, picturesque eyebrows shining in the early morning sun, plain clothes against the white skin, so that everyone's eyes lit up, with a sense of amazement.
"I just - I ......" Xi Hao was a little confused, he really saw Flawless crying, so he was worried that his father would leave Bai Yan Flawless and break the relationship between the two, but now it is turned around and completely changed, Flawless's state at the moment is so good, it makes everyone have a sense of unreal illusion.
"Indeed, I saw ......"
"Okay, the porridge is going to be cold, Daddy is flawless, you please first. Lingering covered Xi Hao's mouth at the right time, and then turned his body around and buckled it into his arms.
"Okay, let's eat. Meng Changlong walked down with a smile, and Flawless followed him down the steps step by step, and went out together. Xi Hao was completely dumbfounded, and when he found that Meng Changlong and Flawless had already left the courtyard, he struggled in his arms, and said, "You let go of me, I'm not in a state at all, lingering, Fang is my illusion alone, or- or Flawless He is really laughing?"
"My stupid husband, don't toss, whatever you want to ask and want to know, wait for your father to leave. β
"But...... But flawless, he ......" his jaw was gently picked, Xi Hao passively raised his head, full of questions and puzzles were blocked by lingering hot lips, his eyes widened, looking at lingering in a daze, and then his hands tightened, grabbed his lingering arms and held his breath.
"Breathe. Realizing that he was as stupid as ever, he raised his brows in amusement, his lips parted slightly, and after he took a deep breath, he leaned down again......
The scream of knowing suddenly sounded, startling the person who was trying to adjust his breathing, seeing Xi Hao's eyes dipping upward, lingering couldn't help but smile and let him go, and said, "Let's go, let's go and join in the fun." β
"Okay!" The ten fingers interlaced tightly, and the two of them ran towards the courtyard with laughter, and the early morning sun drilled out of the clouds, and the fiery breath shone on the green courtyard, expanding the hard-won joy infinitely, infecting all the people in the courtyard.
"Second master, look, this is the profitability of our stores in the capital this month, just Wendingxuan has earned 30,000 taels, plus the income of the silk village, grain and oil shops and silver buildings, the monthly income can reach 80,000 taels of silver, excluding daily expenses, the net income can reach half. "The chief shopkeeper in charge of the major stores in Cloud City, known as "one pole" Qiu Zhengming is now in the Ding Xuan to report to Leng Er this month's income, Zheng Chexuan ordered to unseal the shop in the hands of the flawless, Leng Er and Leng San reopened the Ding Xuan, because of the protection of the imperial power, all the business has been done well, and many small stores have been opened in less than a year, Leng San left Yuncheng and returned to Puzhou to continue to develop, Leng Er invited a very famous old student in the industry to manage the business of Yuncheng, in just one year, it has developed into the first major business in Yuncheng.
"Qiu shopkeeper's work Leng Er rest assured, what you need to buy in exchange for something, you just let it go, you can also take care of anything in the store, we are all honest people, the business is big, Leng will not treat the big guys. Leng Er looked at the accounts in his hand, couldn't hide the joy between his eyebrows, and after carefully checking it, he put the account book on the table, and said: "Pay 20,000 taels out and deposit it in Huitong Bank, and the rest will be handled according to the old rules." β
"Okay. Qiu Zhengming responded, and wanted to turn around and leave, but after hesitating for a moment, he couldn't help but turn around: "Second master, please forgive Qiu for asking a lot of questions, this month, the second master has to withdraw half of the silver taels and deposit them in Huitong Bank, I don't know, what is the purpose?"
He didn't want to ask more, but in the past year, half of the silver made by the cold second-hand Chinese store pΓΉ every month would be deposited by him into Huitong Bank, it stands to reason that the money in this money village should accumulate more and more, and the interest should be very considerable, but the fact is that the direction of the silver is unknown, and it circulates very quickly, and the next time he goes to deposit, there is not much left, and after a long time, he will inevitably have a pimple in his heart.
"Heh......" Leng Er laughed with a fan, then took a sip of tea and said: " Although Huitong Money Village is not a time-honored brand, it has a characteristic, that is, it can be deposited and exchanged between countries, in fact, if you don't ask, I will also sue you, the store we are running now is not owned by my Leng Er and Leng San, we also have a son on our head, he walks between countries all the year round, rarely stays in one place, not only the shop in our hands, but also the industry of the Mo family in Puzhou is all our son's, every month we will propose half of the profits to be deposited in Huitong for the turnover of the son. β
Qiu Zhengming gasped when he heard this, and he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
After a long time, it turned out that there was a master on it, but he had never heard Leng Er mention it, no wonder he always threw out a lot of silver, listening to Leng Er's tone, this son is a very restless master, or maybe the money was squandered by him. Thinking of this, Qiu Zhengming couldn't help but sigh in his heart and regretted it.
Leng Er saw his face change, knowing that he must be thinking crookedly, so he didn't explain, but smiled and said: "Childe often says that money is something outside the body, and if you go, you will go, he doesn't value these very much, so naturally there is no constraint on using it." β
"But such a squander......
"He is running around all the year round, food, clothing, housing and transportation are not as good as at home, if there is a drought or flood, a lot of silver will be scattered to relieve the victims, so no matter how difficult it is, we can't shorten the silver to make the son suffer, Qiu shopkeeper, some things are inconvenient to say, as long as Qiu shopkeeper knows where the silver goes, the rest, don't talk about it. Leng Er snorted and ended the topic, Qiu Zhengming hurriedly bowed his body when he heard this, and said: "Yes, it is Qiu who is too talkative, listening to what Leng Er Ye said, Gongzi is actually a good person who is kind and charitable, but unfortunately Qiu Mou is not blessed to see the true face of Gongzi." β
Leng Er listened to his words, couldn't help but sigh, and muttered: "Who said no, Childe doesn't know where he is now, whether he is well, whether he is well, whether he eats and wears everything, it's been a year, and there are few letters, it's really ...... It's worrying. β
So he wrote a letter and had someone take it. As soon as the door curtain was lifted, a person came in from outside, Leng Erben was still sitting on the stool, and his face changed after seeing the man, and he hurriedly threw away the fan, got up and greeted him.
"Your Majesty!"
Qiu Zhengming stood aside and looked back, and after hearing Leng Er's address to the visitor, his legs were weak and he almost wanted to fall.
I have long heard that the reason why Leng Er has today's achievements is because of the imperial power, so no one dares to move, but it can be said that he has never seen the emperor come here in the past year, so he thought that everyone was just spreading false rumors and exaggerating words, who would have ......
"There's no need to be polite, I have to go out for a walk today, thinking that I haven't eaten the pastries made by Liuying for a long time, I really miss it, so I brought Xiao Liuzi here. Zheng Chexuan smiled and waved his hand, stopped Leng Er's bowing, and then walked to the table and sat down, Leng Er saw this, and hurriedly raised his voice to call Sima Yi to prepare ice cubes to cool off, and then asked people to tell Liu Ying to prepare pastries.
"Are you reconciling the accounts?" Seeing the account book on the table, Zheng Chexuan picked it up and flipped through it, seeing that the accounts were clear and smooth, and the details were abnormal, he couldn't help but nod and said, "Second Uncle Leng really has a good business, and the business has been so huge in just one year, and it is not in vain that I reopened the original intention of Ding Xuan at that time." β
"Thanks to the emperor's holy grace, we have a way to make a living, son, he ...... so that I will not suffer the loss of money and suffer myself......"
Zheng Chexuan's hand paused slightly, his smile disappeared, a trace of pain slowly surfaced between his eyebrows, and he sat silent for a long time, he put down the account book and said, "It's all my fault, if I hadn't forced him too hard, he wouldn't have abandoned me." For so long, I want to get his understanding, so I will spare no effort to help the Great Jin win this war this time, two days later, Wufeng will take the army from western Sichuan to the Great Jin, and go to Jiuyuan to support the Jin army, Second Uncle Leng, Wufang is also there, I hope you can repair a letter and persuade him to come back, as long as he is willing, I can agree to any conditions!"
